San Francisco, the city where they want to sport hunt the homeless, is definitely the center of communism on earth; not any actual nations espousing communism or socialism as their national ethos, just the techbro city in ‘Commiefornia’.
Beyond the abject stupidity, it’s such an anglocentric thing to think lmao
I was curious and checked Wikipedia, this is going to sound like a joke but he was on assignment studying corn in Iowa in 1985. I’m assuming he just visited SF on the way there or back.

Especially during the 80’s. By that time any hippie sentiment had been beaten out of the city and people.
Any story about this pic? Interesting time to be visiting sf specifically.

it’d be pretty funny if the PRC opened a consulate in Muscatine
Khrushchev never died, he just became Chinese
No, that makes perfect sense! 1980s china is a booming population just a few decades from the great leap forward.
I was thinking maybe he was in SF for the booming high tech economy. But apparently he was in the us to study a more important part of the economy!
